I am running stock height on my K20 and still have those massive original spring blocks, so shock length is an important consideration. For the price I couldn't pass on the shocks. When I get them installed I will post with results.
Looking over the data on compressed and extended length, they're right on. I bet they fit just fine.

Monroe 66833
Compressed length 14.97"
Extended length 24.63"
Travel 9.66"

KYB KG5466
Compressed length 14.09"
Extended length 22.95"
Travel 8.86"
